Why would my emissions light come on I have a 2005 accord ex?
Should i be really worried? does anyone know why it just popped on last night? I can't get it to the dealer until Tues. HELP!!!I have noticed just prior to the light comming on it seemed to have a lil less power.

emissions light comes on when something that affects the mixture in your car is detected by your computer. It could be many things. Your spark plug could misfire or your timing could be off. Have it checked. It won't kill you to drive your car, but it will cost you more because your car's not driving efficiently.

sometimes something as silly as not replacing the fuel cap properly will cause the light to trip on but since it is a new honda(great cars) i would assume its still under warranty i would say any major malfunctions(not highly likely)could be covered as long as you have made no alterations so take it to be looked at but make sure not to rush straight home alot of the time they reset the light do not resolve the issue and it turns back on a mile or two down the road!!
